  1. https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/five-mlb-trades-wed-like-to-see-after-the-lockout-including-yankees-and-phillies-blockbusters/ Would 100% give up Vaughn to get Marte, but not wild about giving up Montgomery.

  3. The defense in the final 4 minutes tonight was stellar. God we missed Caruso as that defensive anchor. Everybodies defense instantly elevated having our stopper back on the court. PS: I love me some Stacey King! I loved Hawk and it is great having a fun biased announcer for the Bulls who understands the game too. Makes it all around fun. I know some don’t like him but so glad Bulls have him calling games.

  4. I think he makes them a lot better. 1. The bulls are the best percentage 3pt team in the league but lowest in attempts. They have a math problem. Their "4s" like Green and DJJ only put up 1-2 3s per game. Barnes puts up 5 and hits them at a 45% clip 2. Because Lavine, Vuc, and Demar operate so much in the mid-range, you don't want a guy that also needs to play there. Barnes would be fine just hanging and getting easy corner 3s. Barnes basically shoots 3s or close 2s. And he CAN back a guy down if needed, which is helpful in the 2nd unit. 3. He is not a great defensive player but he has often guarded the best offensive player on the opposing team and been neutral, and that is on a very stupid defensive team in the kings. The Bulls WITH caruso and ball are actually quite smart on defense, and it's believable he'd do the same. 4. He gets to the line 5 times per game, the guys he is replacing do not get there consistently He's a bit like our discussions of Jeff McNeil for the sox. He's not the greatest player in the world but his strengths fit nearly all of the white sox weaknesses (LH, Low K, Strong OBP, Strong Defense).

  5. For some reason it doesn’t seem right trading two first round draft choices for a second baseman.

  6. Of all of the young SP, there is no one I am holding on tighter to than Vera. He has true ace potential.

  8. Coby White has become a good basketball player. He has learned to finish around the hoop and while he is not a great pg he is a much better, controlled playmaker and his defense is much improved as well. He just looks like a different player from his first 2 years. As much as I blasted last years PG experiment (in terms of his production)…that process did make him stronger.

  10. It is also the exact strategy they used to destroy as much of the 2020 season as possible.

  11. That may be true currently, but he’s also the best choice for 3B.

  12. And a way better option at 3rd base.

  13. It he's out 8 weeks then he'll get maybe 12 games at the end of the season. 8 weeks puts his return in mid to late March and the regular season is more or less over at that point. 6 weeks will mean he's back at the start of March and can get maybe 20 games in before the playoffs.

  14. With Lonzo out for a while and Coby balling out, I agree that he likely is no longer a trade chip. His offense can really come into play off the bench in the stretch run. As for trade assets, IMO PWill is/should be top of the list if the FO wants to make a big move for a 4. His value should still be fairly high and his developmental timeline just doesn't match up with this squad anymore after a lost year. Don't know if AKME is sentimental about their own lotto picks, but PWill is their best trade piece and they shouldn't be off limits if they are looking to everything they can to build the best possible roster.

  20. Eh, I'm sure they've already considered every scenario players could propose and worked through what they are going to press for vs ease up on, they'll take days to respond because they think it's awesome to do. Eventually as deadlines come down the hands will get revealed. I do think the players need to prioritize a bit more on what is most important.
